The MatePad 11 briefly mentioned at Huawei’s launch event last month is now official. The device which runs HarmonyOS 2 was unveiled in China today, and just like the MatePad Pro 10.8, it too comes with a Snapdragon processor.
Huawei has equipped the tablet with a 10.95-inch LCD display that has a 2560 x 1600 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The display has moderately sized bezels of equal thickness on all sides. The front-facing 8MP camera is positioned on one of the bezels.
There is a Snapdragon 865 processor powering the tablet and it is paired with 6GB of RAM. Interested buyers will be able to pick it up in 64GB, 128GB, or 256GB storage variants. There is a MicroSD card slot that allows users to add up to an extra 1TB of storage. We are surprised Huawei added support for a MicroSD card instead of its proprietary nano memory card.
The Huawei MatePad 11 has a 13MP rear camera with an f/1.8 aperture. There is an LED flash and the camera can shoot time-lapse photos. There are four microphones on the device as well as four Harman Kardon-tuned speakers. So not only do you get a great experience when watching a movie, but the noise-canceling microphones will also eliminate background noise such as the sound of you typing, mouse clicks, or someone walking during a call.
The tablet works with the M-Pencil 2nd Generation and also has an optional magnetic keyboard that allows you to use it as a small notebook computer. Users will be able to use two instances of the same app side-by-side. The MatePad 11 can also connect to a compatible computer and serve as a digital drawing tablet.
Other features of the tablet include Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and OTG with reverse charging support. There is a 7250mAh battery under the hood with support for 22.5W fast charging.
